The Barn Cinema

A beautiful and unique independent cinema, set inside a converted 15th century barn, with community at its heart.

Welcome to the Barn Cinema, an independent cinema with community at its heart. Our beautiful venue – a converted 14th century barn set in a medieval courtyard – gives us a stunning space to share our passion for cinema. We believe in film’s ability to move us; comfort us; energise and provoke us; and we believe that this is an experience at its best when it’s shared. We are grateful to the BFI and the Cultural Recovery Fund for Independent Cinema for their support, enabling us to reopen the Barn Cinema in 2021.

Our love of film has been part of the roots of Dartington Trust as it has grown into the estate of today. Our founders, Dorothy and Leonard Elmhirst, possessed a forward-thinking attitude towards film – resulting in a  film archive dating back almost a century (some of which can be watched online). Our eclectic program of independent film dates back to the 1960’s and still aims to entertain and challenge, offering something for every taste.
